Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:425 studentsStep-by-step explanation:1.- the number of students that sleep between 8 - 10 hours a day in one sample was 44 and in the other sample was 48.2.- If you get the average among them (44 + 48 / 2) = 46 % of  students from a total sample of 100 students.3.- If the total of your population is 925 students, that mean the 100 %, you need ro obtain the equivalent of the 46 %.4.- Use a simple rule of three5.- 925 students = 100 %             X students = 46 %6.- (925 x 46 %) / 100 % = 425 students
